Answer:

The correct option is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given piecewise function is

$f(x)=\begin{cases}3x^2+1 & \text{ if } -4$

Range is the set of output or y values.

The given function for 6 ≤ x < 9 is

$f(x)=6$

It is a constant function, the value of function is 6 for all values of x.

Range = 6

The given function for -4 < x < 6 is

$f(x)=3x^2+1$ .... (1)

It is a quadratic function.

The vertex form of a quadratic function is

$f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k$ ....(2)

Where (h,k) is vertex and a is constant.

From (1) and (2), we get a=3,h=0,k=1.

The vertex of this function is (0,1), it means the range of this function is greater than or equal to 1. But this function is only defined for -4 < x < 6.

$f(-4)=3(-4)^2+1=49$

$f(6)=3(6)^2+1=109$

The maximum value of the maximum value of the function is 109 at x=6. Since 6 is not included in the interval -4 < x < 6, therefore 109 is not included in the range.

Range = [1,109)

When we combined the range of both functions we get

Range = [1,109)

Therefore the correct option is 3.

A company manufactures running shoes and basketball shoes. The total revenue (in thousands of dollars) from x1 units of running

Alborosie

Answer:

$x_1 =2 , x_2=7$

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the revenue function given by $R(x_1,x_2) = -5x_1^2-8x_2^2 -2x_1x_2+34x_1+116x_2$ . We want to find the values of each of the variables such that the gradient( i.e the first partial derivatives of the function) is 0. Then, we have the following (the explicit calculations of both derivatives are omitted).

$\frac{dR}{dx_1} = -10x_1-2x_2+34 =0$

$\frac{dR}{dx_2} = -16x_2-2x_1+116 =0$

From the first equation, we get, $x_2 = \frac{-10x_1+34}{2}$ .If we replace that in the second equation, we get

$-16\frac{-10x_1+34}{2} -2x_1+116=0= 80x_1-2x_1+116-272= 78x_1-156$

From where we get that $x_1 = \frac{156}{78}=2$ . If we replace that in the first equation, we get

$x_2 = \frac{-10\cdot 2 +34}{2}=\frac{14}{2} = 7$

So, the critical point is $(x_1,x_2) = (2,7)$ . We must check that it is a maximum. To do so, we will use the Hessian criteria. To do so, we must calculate the second derivatives and the crossed derivatives and check if the criteria is fulfilled in order for it to be a maximum. We get that

$\frac{d^2R}{dx_1dx_2}= -2 = \frac{d^2R}{dx_2dx_1}$

$\frac{d^2R}{dx_{1}^2}=-10, \frac{d^2R}{dx_{2}^2}=-16$

We have the following matrix,

$\left[\begin{matrix} -10 & -2 \\ -2 & -16\end{matrix}\right]$ .

Recall that the Hessian criteria says that, for the point to be a maximum, the determinant of the whole matrix should be positive and the element of the matrix that is in the upper left corner should be negative. Note that the determinant of the matrix is $(-10)\cdot (-16) - (-2)(-2) = 156>0$ and that -10<0. Hence, the criteria is fulfilled and the critical point is a maximum
